don't bother. Some people jump on the haterwagon. TFA has made 930+ Mil domestically. You will find people who like to hate on it because everyone else likes it and it drives them crazy. Of course no one ever admits this. But you can usually tell when they use copy and paste arguments that you have seen from other haters. Also, some people automatic categorize anything they don't like as garbage. Because if their refined taste did not like something, then it truly must be pure trash. 

I like it how not enjoying something it automatically the hate bandwagon. So, how do you explain that i managed to enjoy the prequals?

A bad movie is a bad movie. A game full of plotholes is a bad movie. If it didnt have STAR WARS in the title that movie would've tanked really hard.

Explain how it more than performed 30% better than any of the prequels (adjusted, more than double not adjusted) and both ESB and ROTJ (adjusted) while they too had the Star Wars name? 

I don't have an issue with others not liking it. Everyone has their own taste. But to categorically define it as "bad" because you did not like the direction they took it is not logical to me. If plot is your number one criteria for a movie then you likely dont particulary care for star wars in general. None of them have had "good" plots. Not every movie requires an air tight plot. Obviously the better the plot the more it helps a movie, but in some cases it is okay for the plot to simply be a vehecle used to get to the objective of what the movie is targeting to present. 

With Star Wars it is a character driven saga set in another galaxy. The whole point is to transport you. Some people dont like that and it is fine, they prefer movies that they can identify with the world they see around them. 

Again, my issue is not that you did not like it. I dislike movies that everyone else seemed to love (Furious 7..... god I hated that). We have our own taste. Its more to do with you and that other poster defining as bad which it is not. I am not here trying to claim TFA is one of the greatest movies ever made. But what I will say is it was an extremely fun movie, with for me very high rewatchability.  Which is exactly how I categorize the originals.
